What would the top supplements be for pure performance, pre contest or any type of race be?
Not pre contest as in BB but maybe as in power lifting, any explosive competetion like martial arts, wrestling, football, running etc.Well you need to pick one specific event. Pre-race will differ from pre-contest
Ok, pre-explosive movement: creatine, betaine, arachidonic acid, amentoflavone, caffeineNot pre contest as in BB but maybe as in power lifting, any explosive competetion like martial arts, wrestling, football, running etc.
Funny I have never felt much from Rhodiola except some heart burn~~ though I was never able to narrow it down that that being the culpritOk, pre-explosive movement: creatine, betaine, arachidonic acid, amentoflavone, caffeine
Pre-endurance: beta-alanine, nitrates, citrulline, rhodiola rosea, caffeine
I've seen it in App Nut's Beta Test. It looks interesting. Are there any other products or just a standalone where we can find it?Ok, pre-explosive movement: creatine, betaine, arachidonic acid, amentoflavone, caffeine

Sorry but what is COP?I'd add COP into the mix as well
creatinol-o-phosphateSorry but what is COP?

I train MMA and used to powerlift. For me, the staples are creatine mono, agmatine, rhodiola, vit D, and fish oil.Not pre contest as in BB but maybe as in power lifting, any explosive competetion like martial arts, wrestling, football, running etc.
If we're talking straight ingredients and not a product then I second thiscreatine and caffeine IMO
I never really got anything from Rhodiola, what do you "feel" from it?I train MMA and used to powerlift. For me, the staples are creatine mono, agmatine, rhodiola, vit D, and fish oil.
This question seems to come up a lot lately now that rhodiola is gaining popularity. Initially the "feel" will be a boost of energy. If too much is consumed, then that can turn into real lethargy because there is a bell curve. You need to assess the right dose for you (I like 200-250 2x a day). After a couple weeks, the energy boost feeling subsides and then there isn't much "feel", but rather a sustained energy level throughout the day. It also helps your body adapt and combat stress as it is a powerful adaptogen. In turn, you get more out of sleep, fight cortisol, and don't get the lulls that many people do throughout the day.I never really got anything from Rhodiola, what do you "feel" from it?
Everybody seems to like creatine, how should I dose it? Never been a fan before but willing to give it another try
Why no Betaine?Creatine Monohydrate
Creatinol-o-phosphate
Beta-Alanine
L-Citrulline
Caffeine
Well thats my top 5, I personally notice better effects with the 5 I mentioned compared to Betaine.Why no Betaine?
Oh gotchaWell thats my top 5, I personally notice better effects with the 5 I mentioned compared to Betaine.

I added it in about 8 years ago and I used to suffer from what I call "drag ass" because I was in a very hard training mode and I'd just drag ass all the time because my body always needed more rest no matter how much I gave it. Rhodiola was recommended by a guy I was training with and within 2-3 weeks, I found that I was getting more energy throughout the day and sleeping better. Then I realized I was able to deal with stress better and not get bogged down.
Hope that helps. It is a great supplement that I highly recommend.
